Appreciations

Post by TAMc »

I'd just like to say how grateful I am to the forum & people involved in it for the help I've benefitted from over the past couple of weeks. After now having fitted a new hard disk, a clean reinstall & update of VS9, solving what appeared to be a major obstacle to installing firewire, and learning about a whole range of tweaks and workrounds, my system now seems to be doing what I need it to - & working with VS9 is now starting to be fun rather than a trial. I'm bound to be in need of more help in the future, but now knowing the extent of the support & guidance which is available if needed is a great comfort. Thanks guys. :lol:

Sounds like you had a lot of hard work getting your system working and glad your now back in business.

Can I suggest that you get hold of a Hard drive imaging program such as Norton Ghost, Acronis True Image or similar. Best to do this as soon as possible whilst your system is "clean" and working.

Once you have a back up image of your hard drive you can remove the hard drive you currently have and place a brand new unformatted hard drive in you computer. You then "restore the hard drive image" and your computer is back up and running in a very short space of time.

Typically a Windows XP system with a complete installation of Microsoft Office, your anti-virus and your email all set up would take about 10 minutes!
